Argon SST-AR03-V2 CPU Cooler - 120mm

With the Argon Series CPU coolers, Silverstone presents a range of coolers that are reduced to the essentials but still have state-of-the-art technology. The big advantage is a particularly attractive price offer, without having to do lose cooling performance. All Argon Towers are made of an aluminum radiator and several copper heatpipes, which are directly connected to the heat spreader of the processor thanks to HDC technology (Heatpipe Direct Contact) and thereby dissipate their heat into the lamella tower.

Also as is the standard with every Silverstone Argon cooler they already have the following included: a blue-white fan with a 4-pin PWM connector, which is controlled by a compatible motherboard fully automatically, depending on the utilization and heat development of the CPU. Because Silverstone now has some experience in fan construction, and an innovative vibration-absorbing assembly is installed on the Argon cooler, each fan offers a great balance between air circulation and quiet operation. All coolers of the series are also compatible with every current motherboard socket from AMD or Intel.

The Argon AR03-V2 offered here is a very powerful tower cooler with a total of six smartly arranged heatpipes a 6 mm diameter. Into the base, they transport the waste heat into the 14 cm wide and 15.9 cm high radiator block. A nine-bladed 120 mm fan with plain bearing ensures a proper air flow rate of up to 137.5 m³ / h at a full rotational speed of 2,200 rpm, causing no more than 33.5 dB (A). It can also act very quietly - throttled by pulse width modulation - if it scoops at just 1,000 rpm with only just over 16 dB (A) air.
